The Scio School District in Lake County, Oregon is seeking a contractor to remodel an existing single-family residence located at 38729 NW Cherry Street into a new public district office. The project involves comprehensive interior and exterior renovations to transform the approximately 1,665 square foot property into a functional administrative facility, including structural modifications, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing upgrades, and ADA compliance improvements. Contractors must submit detailed proposals by March 14, 2025, at 2:00 PM, with contractor selection scheduled for March 17, 2025, and project completion expected by June 1, 2025. The Request for Proposal (RFP) requires contractors to provide comprehensive cost proposals covering labor, materials, permits, and associated expenses while adhering to Oregon Public Contracting Law and prevailing wage rates established by the Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI). Evaluation criteria will focus on contractor qualifications, project plan feasibility, cost-effectiveness, and legal compliance. Key project elements include extending floor framing, infilling the garage door, adding a new entrance, relocating mechanical units, installing new lighting and electrical systems, and implementing accessible plumbing fixtures.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors must provide performance bonds and appropriate insurance coverage as part of their proposal. While no specific budget range is disclosed in the available documentation, the project requires comprehensive renovation services transforming a residential structure into a fully functional office space. Contractors will need to demonstrate expertise in adaptive reuse projects, municipal facility renovations, and compliance with Oregon's public contracting regulations. The architectural and engineering design was completed by ZCS Engineering & Architecture, with structural engineering by Udell Engineering, indicating potential requirements for contractors to coordinate with these existing design professionals. The project involves Type VB construction with a B occupancy designation, suggesting specific building code and construction standards must be met. Prospective bidders should carefully review the detailed construction drawings and RFP documentation to understand the full scope of work and compliance requirements for this district office remodeling project.
